Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups (290 g) gluten-free 1:1 flour, such as Bob’s Redmill 1:1 Gluten-Free Baking Flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup (1 stick or 113 g) unsalted butter, room temperature & cut into pieces (see notes for dairy free option)
- ½ to ⅔ cup raw sugar + 2 Tablespoons for sprinkling (optional)
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup (120 ml) non-dairy milk, room temperature (hemp, almond, or rice milk recommended)
- 2 cups fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries (see notes)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat twelve standard-size muffin wells with nonstick spray or line with paper muffin cups; set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and kosher salt. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the room temperature butter on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add the sugar and vanilla extract and beat until fully incorporated.
- Add Eggs: Beat in the first egg until combined, scraping down the sides as needed. Repeat with the second egg, beating until the batter is creamy.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with the non-dairy milk. Do not fully combine; leave streaks of flour to keep the batter light and tender.
- Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold fresh or frozen blueberries into the batter, being careful not to overmix.
- Fill Muffin Wells: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. If desired, sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar on top for a crunchy topping.
- Bake: Place the muffins in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 375°F. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool and Serve: Let the muffins cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Then remove them from the pan and cool directly on the rack before serving warm or at room temperature.
- Storage: Store muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
Notes
- Dairy-Free Substitute: Use solidified coconut oil in place of butter. For milk, hemp, almond, or rice milk are best low-FODMAP non-dairy options.
- Frozen Blueberries: Do not thaw before adding to the batter to prevent excess moisture.
